It's been pretty quiet around this comm. I thought I'd break the silence with a plug.<br /><br /><center><img src="http://i332.photobucket.com/albums/m326/devils_sidekick/lit%20library/bookbannercopy.jpg"></center><br /><br />Come join <span class="ljuser i-ljuser i-ljuser-type-C " data-ljuser="lit_library" lj:user="lit_library" ><a href="http://lit-library.livejournal.com/profile" target="_self" class="i-ljuser-profile" ><img class="i-ljuser-userhead" src="https://l-stat.livejournal.net/img/community.gif?v=556?v=174" /></a><a href="http://lit-library.livejournal.com/" class="i-ljuser-username" target="_self" ><b>lit_library</b></a></span> <br /><br />LITERATURE is a community where the common theme is a love for books and writing. Members are placed into one of four teams (the Romantics, the Victorians, the Moderns, and the Contemporaries) where they will work with their team members to collect points. Every few months a chapter of the community will close and the team with the highest points will be declared the winner of that chapter. <br /><br />We are currently taking applications for membership, just go here to this post: <a href='http://community.livejournal.com/lit_admissions/profile'>http://community.livejournal.com/lit_admissions/profile</a><br /><br />Please let them know that <span class="ljuser i-ljuser i-ljuser-type-P " data-ljuser="chaucerettescs" lj:user="chaucerettescs" ><a href="http://chaucerettescs.livejournal.com/profile" target="_self" class="i-ljuser-profile" ><img class="i-ljuser-userhead" src="https://l-stat.livejournal.net/img/userinfo_v8.svg?v=17080?v=174" /></a><a href="http://chaucerettescs.livejournal.com/" class="i-ljuser-username" target="_self" ><b>chaucerettescs</b></a></span> sent you.

How is the duke? How is the duchess? I trust the summer fashions are most amusing, et cetera. I have been well enough, considering the circumstances. The roof has begun to leak, two of my goats are pregnant, and it would appear that I am still exiled indefinitely from the kingdom, on pain of death should I enter again, but anyway--<br /><br />You may be wondering why I choose to write you now. However, I suspect you already know.<br /></i></span><span><i><br />Last night, a young man arrived at my door. He was glassy-eyed, rather disheveled and clearly delirious, and seemed to be suffering from all signs of the early stages of lycanthropy.</i></span><span><i>&nbsp; </i></span></p><span><i>He also seemed to be wearing a ring with the royal seal on it. There was a piece of parchment clenched in his hands, and, hoping for a note that might explain his presence, I tried to pry it away, but could salvage only a few scraps. It was not enough to discern any words--just enough to identify your handwriting. </i></span><span><i>Most of the page had been eaten; his mind is almost entirely lupine, although three days remain before the full moon. This strongly indicates that he was turned recently--and badly.<br /><br />Am I correct in thinking this man is your brother? I met Lucas only a handful of times, the last being four years ago, but there is something familiar about the poor wretch's face. There has been talk, even out here in the Thregian Mountains, that your brother was consorting with the Wolf Prince. I have always dismissed it as nothing more than talk, but now I wonder. If true, surely you understand the seriousness of the situation. Even if it is not, you are surely aware that the King has vowed, not only to destroy all such beasts, but those who attempt to aid of conceal them as well.<br /><br />I would very much like to know why you have sent a fledgling werewolf to my door. I would also like to know how in the world you believe I can help this creature, and more to the point, why in the world I would care to. After all, you and your kin did little to aid me when I stood accused of poisoning the Archduke. Is there some debt I owe you that I have forgotten? Certainly nothing comes to mind.<br /><br />Three days til the full moon, Valia. You should write back quickly. If he injures any of my goats, I am cursing you and all your descendants til the Flood-day.<br /><br /><br />Regards,<br />Mafalda</i></span><a name='cutid1-end'></a><p>&nbsp;</p>http://penandinkling.livejournal.com/720.htmlpublicpancakerabbit06396873712http://penandinkling.livejournal.com/371.htmlFri, 31 Jul 2009 21:03:37 GMTMod post, mod post, tra la lahttp://penandinkling.livejournal.com/371.html
